What reading level is Lincoln And Sickles book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Their first greetings over, Mr. Lincoln sat down and cross- ing his prodigious arms and telescopic legs, soon fell to cross examining General Sickles as to all the phases of the recent combat at Gettysburg. He inquired first, of course, as to Sickles' own ghastly wound, when and how it happened, and how he was getting on, and encouraged him. Sickles was somewhat despondent, very naturally; but Lincoln "jollied" him, and said that he was something of a prophet that day, and that he would prophes...y it would not be long before General Sickles would be out and up at the White House, where they would always be glad to see him. He passed next to our great casualties at Gettsyburg, (equalling if not exceeding Wellington's at Waterloo) and how the wounded on both sides were being cared for ; and finally came to the magnitude of our victory there and what Meade proposed to do with it.
Sickles lay on his stretcher, with a cigar between his fingers, pufiing it leisurely, and answered Mr. Lincoln in detail, but warily, as became so astute a man and so good a soldier ; dis- cussing the great battle and its probable consequences with a lucidity and ability remarkable for one in his condition — ex- hausted and enfeebled as he was by the shock of such a wound and amputation.
